Saving the World with Hostess Twinkies
BoingBoing reader Isaac says,
"I was going through some old comics from the 1970s, and I stumbled upon a series of ads that I had forgotten about - Marvel and DC both had full-page ads in which their superheroes shilled for Hostess Fruit Pies, Twinkies and more! (Holy Flaky Filling, Batman!) There are links to ten different ads I've scanned and posted."Link. See also the extensive Seanbaby archive of kitschy Hostess goodness: Link (thanks, Chris and tgr!)
